So how are the Darwin Awards actually determined?

Nominees significantly improve the gene pool by eliminating themselves from the human race in an obviously stupid way. They are self-selected examples of the dangers inherent in a lack of common sense, and all human races, cultures, and socioeconomic groups are eligible to compete. Actual winners must meet the following criteria:

Reproduction
Out of the gene pool: dead or sterile.

Excellence
Astounding misapplication of judgment.

Self-Selection
Cause one's own demise.

Maturity
Capable of sound judgment.

Veracity
The event must be true.


Meets all of the qualifications.

I believe we have a winner.

There is a Darwin award winner (confirmed), that lost at Russian Roulette playing with a semi-auto handgun.

The only thing that could have boosted his score would have been trying to play with a semi-automatic.
